“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Jackie DiSalvo and OWS

OMG I've worked with Jackie some over the years. Great to see that she was part of the planning for Occupy Wall Street.

Nota bene:

"Established left organizations ... they all were like forget this, this is a disaster, it's a hoax," recalls Holmes, a 24-year-old Hunter College graduate student. As she remembers it, they were skeptical of the idea that a movement beginning with a hashtag from AdBusters could really take off.
"Which is great for us," she says. "Because we didn't really want them."
